I can't find my theme in filezilla?

I did the one click install on my wordpress theme. Now in filezile, my theme choice is neither in my remote site nor local site. I have the 2013, 2014, and 2015 themes because I downloaded the WP from WP.org.

Is my filezilla not connecting to my server or something?

Hi John,

If you're connected to your server via Filezilla, assuming your WordPress installation is in the root of your site, you should find your theme located in:

wp-content > themes > name-of-your-theme

If you don't see a wp-content folder I would check that your details are correct and you are connected to the server. Your host will be able to confirm the details if needed.

If you're working locally this folder structure will be the same based on your WordPress installation location.
